STATUE OF LIMITATIONS
TO REPORT SEXUAL MISCON-
DUCT ELIMINATED
Duke University announced the
elimination of a statute of limitations
for reporting sexual misconduct, the
Duke Chronicle reported Sunday.
The statute of limitations, the
time in which students can report
misconduct, was eliminated due to
student pushback.
Larry Moneta, Duke'svice president
for student affairs, wrote in an e-mail
to students: "The discussions about the
statute of limitations have brought to
light our need to continue our aggres-
sive approach to minimizing sexual
harassment and assault at Duke."

Libyan parliament ousts
prime minister in vote
No-confidence
vote comes after
overthrow of
Gadhafi
Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi waves to the crowd gathered for a speech marking the 1973 war with Israel.
Egypt's new president gives
h imself high grades in speech
Leader is first freely
elected president of
Egypt
CAIRO (AP) - Egyptian
President Mohammed Morsi has
given himself high grades on his
handling of some of the nation's
pressingproblems,spendingmuch
of a nearly two-hour speech late
Saturday talking in painstaking
detail about fuel, trash and
bread, while sidestepping key
issues in the nation's transition to
democratic rule.
But the speech in many ways
was also as much about style as
it was about substance, and the
61-year-old Morsi, the first freely
elected president in Egypt's
history, used his address to
project the image of an energetic
leader in touch with the needs of
the people. That appeared aimed
at drawing a sharp contrast with
his 83-year-old predecessor,
Hosni Mubarak, who was widely
perceived in the waning years of
his long rule as out of touch with
reality.
Morsi, who hails from the
Muslim Brotherhood, the
country's largest and best-
organized political group, made
a slew of promises during his
campaign, vowing to end Egypt's
fuel shortages, improve the
quality of the heavily subsidized
bread, check surging crime,
clean the streets of trash and
ease traffic congestion.
Speaking to a crowd of tens
of thousands in Cairo at Egypt's
largest sports stadium, Morsi
claimed that scientific methods
used to gauge progress on the
five issues gave him a success
rate of 80 percent on bread, 60
percent on traffic, 40 percent on
garbage collection, 85 percent on
fuel and 70 percent on security.
But he also sought to stress
the magnitude of the challenges
he faces, and hit back at critics
who charge that he was spending
too much money and time
traveling abroad and that his
habit of offering Friday prayers
at a different mosque every week
was costly and disrupted traffic
on what is supposed to be the
quietest day of the week.
He said his nine foreign trips
to date - Saudi Arabia (twice),
China, Iran, Belgium, Ethiopia,
Turkey, the United States
and Italy - secured for Egypt
pledges of billions of dollars of
investment and monetary aid
and that his Friday prayers,
which entails the deployment
of hundreds of policemen and
troops, were cost free.
"I am still living in a rented
apartment," he said to bolster
his argument that he was not
abusing his authority. "If anyone
sees me driving a new car that
is not owned by the state should
report it."
"They are trying to find a hole
in a seamless white dress," he
said of his critics. "We have a
glorious future ahead of us."
But his speech touched only
in passing on the simmering
dispute over the drafting of a new
constitution. Liberals, women
and minority Christians say the
process has been hijacked by
Morsi's fellow Islamists. He also
did not touch on the restrictions
that critics say have been placed
on freedom of expression in the
three months since he took office
and the return of abuses by the
police - documented by human
rights groups.
Morsi also offered no vision for
the future of the nation, where
nearly half of its estimated 83
million people live below or
just above the poverty line. He
declared himself married to the
fight against corruption, but
offered no ways to improve basic
services such as medical care,
education or housing for the poor.
The president's critics
remained unimpressed, by both
the speech and the successes he
touted in it.
TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) -
Libya's parliament ousted the
country's new prime minister in
a no-confidence vote on Sunday,
the latest blow to hopes that
political factions could agree
on a government charged with
restoring stability after last
year's civil war.
Mustafa Abushagur was
the first prime minister to
be elected after the 2011
overthrow of dictator
Moammar Gadhafi. He
represented an offshoot of the
country's oldest anti-Gadhafi
opposition movement, and
was considered a compromise
candidate acceptable to both
liberals and Islamists.
But his proposed Cabinet
was struck down by a
legislature representing
dozens of divided tribes,
towns, and regions across
the country, many of whom
feel they are owed the spoils
of victory over Gadhafi. He
was forced to withdraw
his first ministerial line-
up under pressure and his
second attempt to submit one
resulted in his ouster.
In a short statement on
Libya al-Wataniya TV after
the vote, Abushagur said he
respected the decision made
by the General National
Congress as part of Libya's
democracy but warned of
instability if it takes too long
to elect his replacement.
"There should be quickness
in the election of the prime
minister and formation of the
government so the country
does not slip into a vacuum,"
he said.
Hehad25daysfromhis Sep.
12 appointment by parliament
to form a Cabinet and win
the legislature's approval,
but that deadline expired on
Sunday. The Congress voted
A
125 to 44 in favor of removing
him as prime minister, with 17
abstaining from voting. He had
just put forth 10 names for key
ministerial posts Sunday when
the no-confidence vote was
held.
Until a replacement can
be elected by the parliament,
management of Libya's
government is in the hands of
the legislature.
The Congress will have to
vote on a new prime minister
in the coming weeks. The
incoming leader will be

Libya's army and police force
and removing major pockets of
support for the former regime.
On Sunday, around 1,000
people protested in the
capital Tripoli outside the
congressional headquarters
to demand that militias
operating alongside the army
end a partial siege of the town
of Bani Walid, considered a
major stronghold of former
regime loyalists. They called
for a peaceful solution to the
standoff that has already sent
families fleeing from the town
in anticipation of a strike.
